It is a sad week for our family. Grandma Rodeback passed away on Thursday July 24th. She had a massive stroke Saturday night while away in Salt Lake and rushed to the hospital. The doctors did not expect her to survive, the left side of her brain was completely gone which helps us to walk, talk, and eat. My mom and her siblings decided it was best to remove all forms of life support on Monday night and brought her back to her home in Lindon with hospice care. Many family members were able to see her and say their goodbyes. Finally on the morning of the 24th she quietly slipped away from us. The vieweing is this evening in Pleasant Grove and tomorrow afternoon will be the funeral. She will be buried in the Lindon Cemetary.
She was a very special lady and I loved her very much. I have many fond memories of my grandma and will always have a place in my heart for her. One favorite memory I have is when she worked in the kitchen and the elementary school, many times we would go and have lunch with her. I am thankful for the plan of salvation and the knowledge I have that I will see her again and we will be together forever.
